NEXAFS spectra and specific dissociation of oligo-peptide model molecules

Total-ion-yield near-edge X-ray absorption fine-structure (NEXAFS) spectra of three oligo-peptide model molecules were recorded. The NEXAFS spectra were also calculated with time-dependent density functional theory; the calculated spectra are consistent with the experimental measurements. The ionic...
